Also, let’s not forget “Whitney Houston” selling 100K units in its 10th week at #1 (May 1986) on the BB200, more than a year after its release and it was mainly due to “The Greatest Love Of All” smashing. 

 

She truly dominated from the very beginning.

 

she wasnt playing with these girls

Plus in Honey & My All's cases,  R&B radio wasn't even included on the Radio Songs chart at the time. 

This.

 

Honey was #1 on rhythmic radio and #2 on R&B

My All was #4 on R&B radio, #8 rhythmic (also made the decade-end hot 100)

Heartbreaker was #1 on R&B radio, #3 on rhythmic

TGIFY #1 on R&b radio

Pop radio was and still is a the biggest radio format. All these #1s were weak, especially TGIFY and Heartbreaker

 

At least they are not as weak as Nicki's #1s, so it could be worse for Mariah!

Aka you decided to ignore stats to continue trolling. Nothing new there.

Imagine a certain fanbase coming for Mariah of all people when you see the amount of weeks her singles have spent at #1 on radio.

 

OSD outlasted entire careers

Even Gaga's biggest flops went #1 on US Hot Dance Songs chart, guess they were smash hits using ur logic

[dangerousbutera]

I'm confused - please can someone clarify why being a sales #1 but not a radio #1 made a song a weak #1? don't the sales show genuine interest in the song?

Madonna hits being legit though  the fact that Justify My Love went #5 on BDS radio and Erotica going #2 despite them being controversial and all she does is talk and moan   Truly queen of the early 90s. 

It’ll always be a mystery to me how well the erotica  singles and JML performed

I added Alicia and Beyoncé. As you can see Single Sales were irrelevant at that time

 

 

Alicia Keys   Hot 100 #1’s	Singles Sales	Airplay	Hot 100
"Fallin'" (2001)	#34	#1 (6 weeks)	#1 (6 weeks)

Those songs were weak #1s and everybody knows it, I've been hearing about it on ATRL even before I joined, literally a known fact, but you do you, with your mAsSivE raDiO foRmAtS
